Car Radio Installation – Choosing an Audio System for Your Car

These days, when you purchase a new car, it generally comes with a factory fitted car radio. Unfortunately, there are very few car companies that will fit a good quality car radio into the vehicle, unless of course you are paying for a fairly high end vehicle. The good news is, however, that if you do not like the radio system that came with the car, you can choose the right system you do want and have it installed.

A quality radio will have good sound, but it may come at a price, so it would be prudent to hunt for a system that is good to your ears and not so heavy on your pocket. As for the car radio installation, our experts at Electronic Fitment Centre are standing by the assist you, so that you may get the best for your buck.

Common Components in the Deck Unit

Inside you will find the radio receiver for FM and AM radio, CD or DVD players have now replaced cassettes players, while the latest innovations are Bluetooth, USB, and even HD Radio with a DSP component and amplifier circuit. The head unit is usually installed at the centre of the dashboard, between driver and the front passenger.

The speakers are the most neglected part of the audio system. Your head unit may be of high quality, but if the speakers are unmatched to the head unit’s specifications or are of inferior quality, the sound quality output will not be pleasing to your ears. You have to be very choosy and in accordance to your head unit if you want to enjoy crisp clear sound at high volume.

Use Your Ears for the Best Car Radio Installation

Do research beforehand regarding the brands or better still, you could ask the dealers to show you a demo of different brands. Powerful sub-woofers can be installed at the back of the car behind the passenger seat, and the relatively smaller and less powerful speakers are placed in front right next to the dashboard. The woofer has an additional fitting, generally added if the low frequency output is not satisfactory.

You also need to remember that you should get your car radio installation done by a professional service provider, like EFC, if you want to get high quality sound output; a sound system that is going to keep you listening for hours while you are travelling in your car.
